Get WE Care. Wednesday deals
who we are
Community Renewal of Pottawatomie County is a non-profit organization based in Shawnee, OK dedicated to helping neighbors restore their communities through intentional relationships.
We are an independent replication of the pioneering work of Community Renewal International in Shreveport, LA.
what we do
We help Pottawatomie County combat the loneliness epidemic by fostering connection at the neighborhood level,
through a network of neighbors as well as school campus programs.
why we're here
Research shows that building healthy, connected neighborhoods has long-term positive impact on issues like education and crime rates as well as physical health, and we want those outcomes for our county.
get involved
Community Renewal isn’t an office or a staff. It’s a movement of neighbors making change! Join your community in volunteering through the Neighbor to Neighbor Network.
